ENROLMENT FORM: An enrolment form must be filled out on our website before commencement of classes. Students are entitled to one free trial class to place the student in the correct class for their ability and age group. Students are to see the front desk for a debrief on the class. Students classes CANNOT BE COMMENCED UNTIL FIRST MONTHLY BLOCK OF FEES HAVE BEEN PAID IN FULL and should fees not be paid in that 1st week your enrolment fee paid with enrolment will be forfeited and you will be required to pay the full amount of monthly fees.

PAYMENT OF FEES: Invoices are sent out by email at the end of each block of 4 weeks for the next monthly block. A 14 day payment plan applies. A late fee of $18 is automatically applied should invoices not be paid by the due date.
If you should miss a class for example through eisteddfod competition, illness, school camps, school musicals, agency jobs, family holidays or some other reason, the following alternatives are available for that class:-

Enrolment in classes is assumed until the end of 2020. One entire block’s notice and fee payment is required from the date DLDC receives notification of cancellation by the student. Therefore, if a student wants to cancel from a class in Block 4 (for example) you must send an email to notify DLDC before the last date of the block.
